What I would buy for Christmas
Although it's rather late to act on any recommendations for gifts for Christmas, I thought I'd throw this out there anyway.
My last post reminded me that if I had the means to do so, I'd buy a copy of Edward Gibbon's The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire for everyone that I care about. Really, I can't think of a better gift for a literate person if they don't already own a copy. And the Everyman's Library edition is so luxurious and appealing to a bibliophile like me.
